Answer 1

The correct answer is the following.

The scenario that best depicts how power operates at the micro-level is "Husbands and wives often argue about the division of labor within the household."

Power and control are concepts that are always applicable to the corporate world and politics. Or so they say.

However, these concepts can be applied on every level of society, including the micro-level.

That is the case of personal relationships, marriage, and the family environment.

So it is true that power and control operate in the family environment when husbands and wives often argue about the division of labor within the household. The wife or the husband -according to their personalities- want t to be the ones who have the final saying in the decisions at home. And as we can understand, there are serious arguing and discussions to solve many daily issues that exemplify the way they try to maintain control of any determined situation.
